My sugestion:
If this update is made for make war cost more make a diffrence when player is at alliance war + few days after it ends.
I think this should help all players who want to make a "rebuy" after ascesion not to change all weps in APP.

This update is a short term fix, very short term.
As for everyone **Filtered**.
Think of it if your me.
1 day i'm sitting there with 85mil weapons!, the next i'm sitting there with 85mil weapons, that are now only worth half the value.
As for people using weapons to store up naq, GO BUY TURNS, great to save naq up with, Go buy UU, even better it produces naq, and increases bank size.
As for the people ascending, sure it costs a bit but damn it your not suppose to be doing cheap ascensions anyways, you just get to pay more for the 5%, bonus, you know what it's called INFLATION!,
Go look at what the price of a 2 L carton of milk costs, and think back 10 years. It's gone up 30-40%.
Personally i think the price of weapons should be increasing, basicly Everything increases! To mirror the real world, and so that putting off today what you can do tommorow becomes more risky.

would you people have preferred it if the prices for weapons had doubled, but sale value remaining what it is now?

you do know that the loss would have been larger with that, right?
currently, (basing out of asgard weapons)
cost is 151,020, sell is 80,544
with the above, the loss would be approximately 180k per weapon if sold, when currently it is 70k... the loss would be more than doubled...

i just simply don't like this update, im ascending to LG+1 soon and now its gonna cost me an extra 500bil, for a rebuy, which is a lot for me cause of my small army size. i think it should cost just a little more, not too much though on the weapons buying price, and and it should still have the same selling. This update is Fracked up majorly *'scuse the language*, although i do understand the mass and sell perspective. maybe a rule or something would be better, like when you hit 1000 GnR the prices for 2nd hand value are restored to its previous level

This update sorta really does screw the small guy up, espically if there not in a big alliance that can help,
At the same time you cant always have updates that benifit 1 over the other, maybe this has been said before but maybe,
1 ascension 10% loss on resale
2 - 20%
3 - 25%
4 - 30%
5 - 40%
6 - (LG+1 cause most people stop here) 50% loss in resale.
I see some people complaining saying its not fair im trying to ascend to LG or LG+1 and it costs be an extra 500bill, ( if your at this lvl in the game and complaining about 500bill you shouldn't be ascending full stop ) if you have a small army size at this point, congrats on your fast ascending its just caught up with you.

In fact it wouldnt' have been, IT would have been FUTURE Weapons. I E those that you have a plan to buy, Not those currently owned!, as a result the amount of Naq i would of had wouldn't have changed, however my ( apparent bottomline would have increased, instead of decreased. And when you look at it from my point of view, losing 16 tril, or not having to spend 32 trill. I"d take the not having to spend 32 tril!
